More important, that idea is based solidly upon a rock of fact. The whole his- tory of the.modern world supports it. That history is a black and dreary record of steady loss of individual Jiberty under the crushing force of all-powerful govern- ment. We see it in its extreme form in the communist countries, where tactics of ter- ror unknown since medieyal days are used to crush dissent and frighten the people into line. We see it ina ‘much modified version in present*t#ay England, where the forms of Angho-Saxenlaw.ate still follow- ed and the structure of representative gov- ernment still stand, But the difference is one of detail and degree, not of principle. It may’ be that the greatest danger is short-sightedness. The man who runs a store may feel, for instance, that govern- ment ownership of some great industry, such as electric power, is of small moment to him. The man who works in a factory may see no personal menace in a law that would give the government broad controls over doctors. A labor leader may welcome more and more governmental domination of industrial leaders with whom he has differences. This is the way dictatorship comes about. One group is taken over at a time, while the other groups stand by and argue that it’s no affair of theirs. Then, when it is too late, we find to our horror that we’re all in the same boat. In modern times, no nation which has lost its freedom has ever regained it. The totalitarian victories are permanent. On the other hand, the victories of those who still believe in freedom ‘and justice are temporary. The battle must be fought again and again, year after year, on front after front. And each must be won. The road to statism is marked with cheerful signs—human welfare, a better life for the masses of people, security against everything.

When I came to the house was all flooded with light, Although under the table I was high as a kite. While visions of sugar plums danced in my head, I somehow got up and then back into bed. Then what to my wandering mind should appear, But a miniature sleigh and eight tiny reindeer. Then the sleigh seemed to i change to a red fire truck And each reindeer turned into a blery-eyed buck. I knew in a moment it must be Old Nick ... I tried ‘o cry cut but my tongue was too thick, | Then the old devil whistlea | and shouted with glee While the bucks pawed the _ } earth and looked daggers at me. Then he called them by name and the names made me shudder When | heard them I felt like a ship minus a rudder. “Now Egg-Nog! Bacardi! Four Roses! and Srandy! Now Fruit Cake! Cold Turkey! Gin Rickey! and Candy! To the top of his dome, to the | top of his skull 7 Now whack away, crack away, | with thumps that are dull!” And then in a twinkling I felt on my roof The prancing and pawing of each cloven hoof. How long this went on I'm sure I can’t say Tho’ it seemed an eternity, plus 7 long day. But finally the night after Christmas had passed And I found I could really think straight at last, So I thought of the New Year a few days away And I’ve made me a vow that no tempter can sway. } I'm sticking to water, don’t even want ice, For there’s nothing as tasty or nothing as nice. The night after New Year may bother some guys But I’ve learned my lesson, and brother, I’m wise, You can have your rich victuals and liquor that’s red But what goes to my.stomach won't go to my head. So a big Happy New Year to you and to all, I’m back on the wagon, and hope I don’t fall! RUSSELL KAY. A large octopus may be as much as 28 feet across.
